- | + | Though prodigious in his own field, Jack’s curiosity and fervour for a wide range of academic disciplines has allowed him to contribute to the team effort many different aspects. In particular, his design and synthesis of <a href="https://2014.igem.org/Team:Oxford/biopolymer_containment#show2" />biopolymer capsules</a> is not only a major contribution to the realisation of our project, but represents a novel bacterial containment system applicable to many fields of research. He is in charge of the realisation aspect of our project and has been working closely with our engineers to design mathematical frameworks for our modelling. Furthermore, he has led our web page development and graphics. | |
